The
myth of the Moon Gazing Hare reflects ancient beliefs.Pagans believed that seeing a moon gazing hare would bring
growth, re-birth, abundance, new-beginnings and good fortune.The hare is known to be sacred to the goddess Eostre and
eventually became known as the Easter bunny.At
Easter we eat Hot-Cross-Buns, the cross on the bun is said to represent
the four quarters of the moon, these buns were originally pagan
offerings and were often hung from rafters to scare off evil that lurked
in houses.
The
spiral is an ancient symbol thought to be the earliest known symbol of
spirituality. Its
the symbol of the goddess, fertility, growth, rebirth and continual
change. The
spiral is said to represent the continued cycle of life and death. It is
thought a clockwise spiral represents the first half of life and the
anti clockwise spiral represents life in decline and returning to source.
The
meaning of the Pentacle
The
pentacle is a symbol closely associated with Paganism and Witchcraft or
Wicca.
When
the pentagram (five pointed star) is placed within a circle,
it becomes the Pentacle.
Although
over 8,000 years old, the image of the pentagram is very
applicable in our modern world.
It
is a symbol of Love, Light, Beauty and Protection.
The
pentagram tells us that we have the ability to bring Spirit to
earth; this applies to every area of practical day-to-day
living, as well as spiritual thought.
The
origins of the pentagram go far back, to remotest historical
antiquity. It has been venerated by many civilizations.
It is the ruling of the higher mind over the lower elements of
our being. It signals the awakening of cosmic consciousness
and the beginnings of our own human psyche moving beyond the
realms of physical form and the perceptions limited to the
five senses. It allows the infinite possibilities that exist
within the Universe and frees us to explore and to grow.
Traditionally, each of the five angles has been attributed to
the five metaphysical elements of the ancients.
EARTH:
(lower left point) represents stability and physical
endurance.
FIRE:
(Lower right point) represents courage and daring.
WATER: (Upper left point) represents emotions and intuition.
AIR: (Upper right point) represents intelligence and the arts.
SPIRIT: (Upper North point) represents the All and the Divine.
